on their own six shortly thereafter then added the final touchdown in the third period on a blocked punt behind the goal line NEW YORK Nov 27 No less a pundit than Mr Tad Wieman coach of the Princetons has come out in favor of ground force against sea power in short old Mount Baldy of old Nassau sees Army winning over Navy tomorrow Like so many of his practical ilk Mr Wieman is dosposed to dismiss the intangibles rather casually JK They are always present in this listoric clash between the two service schools more so than ever in his particular instance As you have probably read the diers have been on the upswing ever since they fetched Earl Blaik back to the plains Their resurgence started last year They started off in winning stride Three Tie For Grid Title ame is to be played at Annapolis lome base of the budding admirals Annapolis is a sprawling wa er-washed village on the rim of Maryland All of a sudden it has become unique in the football scene Due to conditions laid down by the White House when it was decided the game would be played here only bona fide citizens of the community within a radius of 0 miles are eligible to buy tickets This exclusive touch gives the garage man the delicatessen dealer and the town plumber a position of distinction that must be the envy of Washington politicos who have been accustomed to monopolize the 50-yard line seats So severe are the White House conditions that the Cadets not operating within the prescribed radius must remain at West Point and absorb the details via remote control This is the first of the in-angibles which Mr Wieman and his brethren fail to consider It means the Army team will be without spiritual support from the side lines VINCE GALLATO Bliss Boxer Comes From Fight Family VINCE GALLATTO the tough

Aggie tackier in the picture is Guard Clyde Smith (No 37) The Miners won 61-6 BY ASSOCIATED PRESS New first prep school football season in World War II is winding up in a three-way deadlock for the mythical State championship In schedules restricted to fit wartime travel limitations Carlsbad Albuquerque and Raton have remained undefeated Raton the last of the major unbeaten teams to finish play put a 40-to-6 victory over Dawson on its record for a Thanksgiving Day trimming The triumph over an old neighborhood rival also gave Raton its-second successive season without a defeat in State play this year suf (ered a mid-season let down and then came on again Their latest exploit was a 40-7 runaway against a Princeton team which incidentally was good enough to beat Navy 10-0 As Lou Little the moaning maestro of Columbia has stated: body was surprised to see Army move once Blaik took Just the same there has been another factor in the Army comeback and one that is likely to make itself felt on battlefields much more vital to the democratic way of life than mere touchdown runs the relaxation of minimum weights and heights by the War Department Up to a couple of years ago the regulations actually operated against the admittance of big strapping fellows If a candidate was say six feet tall and weighed more than 188 pounds he was barred from the academy and that was correspondingly true all through the regulations ust why this was so nobody seemed to know Off the record the West Point officials groaned It was only a minor complaint that football was retarded of much more importance was the fact that the best type of officer material was being ignored Somebody said the maximums were put in and kept in force because the Cadets looked so much more attractive in their drill maneuvers Fancy that El Paso Fans Disappointed See Irish In Drills Win Forfeit Then Score 61-6 Victory By BOB INGRAM TEXAS MINERS today had endec their most successful footbal season since 1939 terminating campaign that gave them five victories against four defeats over the entire schedule and four triumphs against three losses in Border Con ference competition The Miners really should have five Conference victories instead four for they defeated the New Mexico Aggies twice yesterday at Kidd Field They won the game Before a play had been called When three ineligible players of the Ag gies stepped on the gridiro the Miners had won a forfeit Coach Ju Johnston said he was compelled to play the ineligible linemen in order to get a team on the field The second victory of the Miners was by a score of 61-Q Coach Milner of the Mines pulled all the punches he could 'but did not succeed in holding down the count The Miners including all the substitutes acted as though they wanted to play the game on the Aggie goal line OPEN BAG OF TRICKS Partly to make a show of the game the Miners opened all their tricks and played their dizziest football game of the season They put on a circus of screened passes laterals sneakers naked reverses quick lineup plays and even made a tackle eligible for a pass The only consolation the Aggies can get out of the game is the fact that they scored their first points in Conference competition this season In the second quarter they blocked kick Dickey actually caught his own punt another freak occurrence in the game The ball bounded back Into his arms Since it was a fourth-down kick however the ballwent over to the Aggies on the 12 Two short passes Budenholzer to Wilborn gave the Aggies their lone touchdown kick for the extra point was no good CIRCLES FIELD Of the nine touchdowns made by the Miners the most spectacular was an 89-yard forward-lateral in the third quarter Dickey tossed a short pass to Milton Cherno end lateraled to Fitzgerald whose run in the statistics was not isted as more than 50 yards But Fitzgerald ran many more yards than that He ran forward retreated 'cutback and zig-zagged in circles Another spectacular touchdown 'or the Miners carried for 76 yards the first play after the kickoff the third quarter Victor Clark lit Evans with a pass and Evans tossed a lateral to Lee Floyd The other Mines touchdowns were made thusly: Clark went 27 yards in the first quarter Ed Smith on double reserve sprinted 22 yards 'or a touchdown in the same period Graham Stafford lunged oVer from the one in the second quarter Bil-y Bridler sparking a Mines drive their 30 carried the ball over rom the one in the same period Smith on a quick lineup play went 42 yards to the six in the third quarter and Clark swept right-end for the touchdown Bridler ran 35 yards for a touchdown in the same quarter Dickey passed to Lav Humphrey for 43 yards and a touchdown in the final period Arthur Abraham made four conversions out of six attempts while Dickey lit three for three MANY MINES STARS Practically every player on the Hines squad starred in the onesided victory For the Aggies the three ineligible linemen Gray Van Pelt and Thieme played good foot-all While Wilborn and Buden-lolzer in the backfield were best SeShazzo who carried the ball at times on an end-around play made some nice gains GAME AT A GLANCE AGGIES (6)
